Magnus Carlsen took clear first place with 7.5/10. A final round win against tail ender Wang Yue extended the winning margin to two points when combined with Radjabov's win against Gelfand. Carlsen gave the im- pression that he was experimenting with some new ideas which led to some unconvincing moments. However he managed to get out of these tight spots and make this an even more impressive victory. 4th Kings Tournament Medias (ROU), 14-25 vi 2010 cat. XX (2742) 1 2 3 4 5 6 1.

  • As Cultural Performance in Chinese: Cases of Requesting and Declining
    “Face” as Cultural Performance in Chinese: Cases of Requesting and Declining DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By HAO-HSIANG LIAO, M.A. Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Professor Galal Walker, Advisor Professor Mari Noda Professor Charles Quinn Copyright by Hao-hsiang Liao 2012 Abstract Face, a self-image that each member of a society seems to care about, is a cultural performance. Performance refers to situated behaviors that define an individual’s successful functioning in a society. Face can be as explicit as defending yourself in a debate or as implicit as denying a request from a friend. This dissertation investigates how “face” is presented, maintained, negotiated, and how it functions in the cases of requesting and declining in Chinese culture. To be more specific, this dissertation explores “face” in four situations – making a request of your teacher, making a request of a friend, denying a request from your teacher, and denying a request from a friend – and depicts the features of these four situations from both the native speakers’ and the Chinese learners’ perspectives. Based on the results of the research, I argue “face” as a theme in requesting and declining as it runs through the considerations and strategies people resort to in these situations. The considerations are face-based and they correspond to the face-saving themes. In Chinese, more specifically, it is lian on mianzi because the speaker, based on his social status, power, and ability, aims to maintain the semblance of integrity.

  • 1 the Acquisition of Sociolinguistic Variation: A
    THE ACQUISITION OF SOCIOLINGUISTIC VARIATION: A LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS OF CHINESE OVER A SHORT-TERM STUDY ABROAD SOJOURN By YANMIN BAO A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2017 1 © 2017 Yanmin Bao 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I want to express my sincerest gratitude to my committee chair, Dr. Blondeau, who introduced me to the field of sociolinguistics and who expertly guided me through my graduate education. Her generous guidance, professionalism, support and patience enabled me to work on a topic that was of great interest to me. The joy and enthusiasm she has for sociolinguistic variation was really contagious and motivated me to develop my research interest from an abstract idea to a practical study. I am especially thankful for her valuable suggestions to my research methodology and variationist analysis of the variable DE, helped me improve these sections a lot. I am also heartily grateful to my committee members: Dr. Golombek, Dr. Lord, and Dr. Fang. Dr. Golombek guided me to compare different models applied to the acquisition of the target language, which was very important for the development of the theoretical framework. To Dr. Lord, I would like to express my gratitude for her interest in my topic of research, for providing me with kind suggestions and the data collection tool (i.e., Language Contact Profile) that I could not possibly have discovered. Also, I want to thank Dr. Fang for being willing to come on board as a committee member and gave me useful advice.

  • First Gold to Eastern Europe
    Chief Editor: Jos Jacobs, Layout Editor: George Hatzidakis Bulletin 3 - Tuesday, 7 October 2008 FIRST GOLD TO EASTERN EUROPE Alexandra Kosteniuk On Sunday evening the first two national anthems were heard in the Convention Hall No. 3 of the BICC. They were the well-known hymn of the Russian Federation and the less well-known anthem of its neighbour state Ukraine. This was in celebration of the first two gold medals won at these 1st World Mind Sports Games. Both finals were a completely Eastern European affair. The countries of Eastern Europe have been dominating the world chess scene for many decades already, as was proved again here in Beijing. For this occasion, both Alexandra Kosteniuk and Martyn Kratvsiv dressed up elegantly to receive their gold medals.
